Adultery is not a sin of Kaliyuga but has traces sketched out back since time known Ancient Hindu Vedas Puranas and Shastras have mentions of adultery committed by Gods sages and mortals who were then duly punished for their sinsIn order to establish dharma among mortals on prithvi Lord Brahma had formulated certain ethics knowledge of which he passed on to his eldest human son ManuManu later on authored Manusmriti with the help of Narada which was honoured as the eternal code of conduct for ancient Indians Apart from setting rules there was also mention of punishments for committing sins and flouting moralsOf all the sins Adultery Infidelity illicit liaisons and relations were considered one of the gravest Even today society treats it as a wrongful deed a moral sinAs mentioned in sacred scriptures Adultery is believed as an act committed involving sexual intercourse between two individuals of which one is married not to the same personIn Hinduism the act of adultery is measured as a breach of dharma And as there isn t any mention of gender biasedness therefore all the punishments are served to both men and womenAlong with Manusmriti Naradokta code of moral ethics by Narada carries the information regarding punishments for sins like Adultery It mentions that the punishment is not just awaited in the afterlife but the individual suffers through it right here in the mortal worldAccording to Manusmriti there are eight kinds of punishments set out to be given to an individual while they are alive Forming sexual relations with a man or wife married to someone else cut shorts your life and the period left for you to spend in the mortal worldGradually your body would be deprived of energy and would be vigourless once your weapon of charm your vitality will slowly become a poison of your peaceWhile alive you ll be scorned by your mind soul and own body Your inner peace would reproach everything related to your loverYou mind would speed to insanity causing anxiety and depression and you will lose respect in your own eyes which would result in degrading health of your soulAfter a point you will lose all your wealth and financial stand You will be indebted to the point of no returnNo mortal relations will be left and your soul would be forced to fend of your own negative energy After your death your existence your life wouldn t be respected or remembered by anyoneEven before you die your body will start rotting and attract infections you will be diagnosed with skin diseases your joints will give up and you will have to live through humpbackedYour death or period of leaving the mortal world would be equally terrifying You wouldnt have the blessing of natural death and may face unexpected end like from snake bite vehicle accident falling in crevasse etc

Every human no matter how wise or dumb how rich or poor how healthy or sick is always under the fear of death This consistent anxiety often leads to one suffer through Thanatophobia fear of deathLife however is unlikely but death is inevitable Most people live through believing in the fact that good deeds and sins influence their next birth more importantly redirect their pathway to heaven or hellWhich is an absolute truth if we go by religious scripture but there has been no evidence or no one to prove it whatsoever But how do you explain life as a time full of love hope pain joyThere are certain things mentioned in Garud Puran one of the 18 mahapuranas in Vaishnavism literature that explains the death and it s precourseToday we will reveal to you a few gems from Garud Puran that will satiate your thirst to understand death and how it comesLord Krishna in Garud Purana have explained in detail on how an individual s death depends on his Karma People who follow the path of righteous and right conscience and keep their faith in almighty deeprooted have a peaceful endIndividuals who all their lives commit misdeeds embrace selfishness and ignorance to spiritual course suffer through painful deathAnd the ones who often lie and break faith of others and are involved in heinous activities are considered evil and as per Vedas their death comes to them in the worst possible way They die in unconscious stateTo some the last course would seem justified as who would want to experience the pain of deathWhen the person is unconscious they can t speak a word are not able to convey what they are going through cannot seek help their mouth dries up and oxygen leaves their body even before they know itHowever no mortal can ever foretell the exact moment of death but those who are closely involved in the last moments of person s life care like their wives nurses or doctors etc describe an unexplained feel when death approachesHere are a few signs that arise only when death approachesNothing excites them not even the aroma of their favorite food Usually people would say such symptom is normal during regular bout of illness But prolonged denial to consume edible items with no feel from within is a sign to be getting cautious off Not even force feeding would help them gain their will from withinThe person would clearly decline the intake of food or liquids ultimately leading to lack of energy which may hinder the menial work like lifting head or limbs or tilting to shifting to one s side They may even not have energy to gulp fluids down their throatInsomnia or disturbing patterns of sleep becomes quite normal when one s body is not functioning regularly But unresponsiveness to reality is one scary call As death nears an individual may come across as insensitive to human presence or any form of life They may just look through people as if nothing existsThis is the time when the person would occasionally smile or utter something unconnected to the present They may speak of something totally baseless or remember things from past and go on talking unconsciously This is the time when the brain is receiving less to no blood circulationA person may experience absolutely no heaviness and may feel light as feather Nothing around them hauls them to reality and they start believing in the alternative worldIts usual for a person under prolong care to disconnect himselfherself from the outside world but occasionally they would come back in But unending refusal to connect with even loved ones might be a sign that the person has seemingly taken the last piece of support that they needed

I have always heard tales from Hindu legends and one of my favourites is that of Gods incarnating in mortal avatars with their uniquely divine powers to reestablish dharma and heal mankind But I always wonder that if Gods also need food to eat water to drink a place to live and clothes to wear what do they do when they are sickAnd the one thing that always intrigued me as a child was that like doctors treated humans who treated Gods when they were sickAccording to Garuda Purana a manifestation of Lord Vishnu Dhanvantari God of Ayurveda is described as physician of Gods in heaven Lord Dhanvantari accompanied the pot of mortal nectar or amrit appeared after churning the oceanHe is depicted in Garuda Purana as the one with four hands one hand holding the pot of Amrit one holding Shankha one carrying the Chakra and one holding Jalauka leechLord Dhanvantri held the responsibility of preserving and protecting Amrita deep inside the ocean until Mohini took over the amrit pot and distributed it amongst the Gods in heaven Of all the amrit that was left Mohini Lord Vishnu advised Dhanvantari to make use of it for the health and welfare of GodsIt was Lord Dhanvantari who promulgated the practise of Ayurveda For example it is mentioned in the Garuda Purana Now hear me O Sushruta discourse on the nature of the medical treatment to be adopted in cases of sinus Sinuses should be first opened with the knife after which remedial measures mentioned in connection with ulcers should be employed According to Garuda Purana he authored Dhanvantari Nighantu and Dhanvantri Samhita two of the most important and earliest books of Ayurveda Its chapters carried descriptions of ailments and their curesFrom sinus hemorrhoids dysentery to poisons Dhanvantri Samhita has Nidanam of all possible diseases some even yet unknown to humansApart from this Dhanvantri has also mentioned a detailed knowledge of medicines According to Garuda Purana he listed down five steps of medical treatmentNidana diagnoses of a disease before the symptoms are evidentIt further describes the art of Purva Rupa a stage when early symptoms of the disease appearThis stage is called Rupa a phase where all symptoms begin to appearMentioned as Upashya this is the point which focuses on the treatment of disease through medicine diet and other activitiesThe final stage Samprapti is explained as the recovery periodOn instance of ancient sage Sushruta he taught and shared the knowledge of surgery and Ayurvedic medicines through Dhanvantari Nighantu Following are the cures of some commonly known diseases as mentioned in Garuda Purana Water cooked with Musta Parpata Ushira Chandana Udichi and N gara when subsequently cooled down should be given to a feverpatient for the alleviation of

In Hinduism all the ancient scriptures that have been mentioned have very little knowledge of the period during Satyuga Nothing in detail other than an explanation of how Lord Vishnu s Matsya avatara ordered Manu and his wife to prepare a boat that could inhabit malefemale pair of each species and Sapt Rishis before the impending flood hits themIt is assumed by the conversations of Lord Vishnu and Manu mentioned in sacred scriptures that the earlier humans had no rules or restrictions even direction to live through They cared nothing about Dharma and Karma as a result all hell broke loose So there was no other option than to destroying everything in order to reestablish lifeAfter the flood receded and everything was restablished Lord Vishnu s Matsya avatara imparted the knowledge and importance of Dharma and Karma He asked Manu to set a direction for humans a set of regulations or rule to which they could abide by for successful continuation of mankindRight from procreation birth and death humanity to animal care and marriage laws Manu authored laws for everything which was compiled in his work Manusmriti These laws were meant for the welfare of humanity and mankind breaking these laws would attract severe reprimands even destruction of life on earthAccording to 18th century philologists Sir William Jones and Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel who worked on translations of this sacred scripture said it may have been written around in 1250 BCE and 1000 BCEManusmriti has over 50 manuscripts but today we will be revealing about just 0000001 part of it in which are mentioned Laws and Warnings for men on treating the women of their family Below mentioned are not all but a fewGod resides in only the places where a woman is honoured A place where a woman is dishonoured and abandoned even the greatest or scared rite or sacrifice can t yield rewardsWhere the female relations live in grief the family soon wholly perishes but that family where they are not unhappy ever prospersThe houses on which female relations not being duly honoured pronounce a curse perish completely For if the wife isn t loved because she is not radiant with beauty then if she has no attractions for him no children will be bornWhen he has committed a sin let him not perform a penance under the pretence that the act is intended to gain spiritual merit thus hiding his sin under the pretext of a vow and deceiving womenWomen must be honoured and adorned by their fathers brothers husbands and brothersinlaw who desire their own welfareNo father who knows the law must take even the smallest gratuity for his daughter for a man who through avarice takes a gratuity is a seller of his offspringThose male relations who in their folly live on the separate property of women eg appropriate the beasts of burden carriages and clothes of women commit sin and will sink into hellNo prudent man after giving his daughter to one man give her again to another for he who gives his daughter whom he had before given 58 incurs the guilt of speaking falsely regarding a human beingIf the future husband of a maiden dies after troth verbally plighted her brotherinlaw shall wed her Content reference httpwwwhindubooksorgmanusmritipdf

Ancient scholars of each religion in this world had set moral codes for humans that covered ethics morality and sexuality These guidelines were set upon with an intention to help them regulate the flow of energy across their mind body and soulHinduism in particular also preaches the virtue of chastity or Brahmacharya which is believed to be a way of harnessing the energy of body and mind towards the goal of spiritual realization even thought it gives pious procreation importanceAs we know that sacred scriptures of Hinduism Vedas Puranasa and Shastra were authored to enlighten and guide the human race through their human birth in order to show them the way to moksha and understand the cycle of rebirthBut there was some knowledge of attaining peace within oneself and selfrealization which could only be achieved through spirituality Therefore Lord Brahma guided his eldest son Manu to set moral codes for humankind so that they could find the way to eternal peaceOf many such principles and moral codes mentioned in Manusmriti or Manava Dharmashastra was the mention of establishing and abstinence of sexual relations From knowledge of establishing it to punishments of adultery and infidelity Manusmriti explains allThere s also mention of religious virtues that if not followed could lead to catastrophe conflicts and disastrous results for mankind So today I am going to put forward the 10 situations under which a man must not be enticed through any sensual purposes if you wish to avoid a torturous afterlifeA man who voluntarily steps into Dhyana a profound meditation state must never be disturbed or enticed by any womenfolk with the intention of establishing relationsWhen a man is in a weak state of Dhyasa where he s at loss from the world around him and shows no sign of remorseWhen a man s mind is wandering and he clearly is at lose of sane sense to understand what is going around himWhen a man is in state of lust and no respect for women one must not entice him or shall be at risk of losing integrityA man who is suffering from insomnia and has had history of restless nights must not be enticed as this would feed the negative energy within him causing selfdestructionA man must not be enticed when he s in state of fatigue or becomes haggard and his body appears to be ridden away of fleshA man who is visibly growing shameless of his misdeeds and every sense of decency rips him off his sanityA man whose on the verge of reaching insanity and devoid himself of worldly affairsA man who has just fainted losing his conscious state or just had fits must not be enticedA man who is standing at the door of death or awaiting his end must not be enticed

The real information about Sri Krishna is a very confidential and esoteric subject matter and usually it is not openly revealed in Vedas The Vedas give many indirect and subtle hints about Lord Krishna and His supreme position but never in the Vedas will you find a direct declaration that Krishna is supreme and we should surrender to Krishna and become a devoteeLord Krishna personally appears in Mrityuloka The universe of death once in every four yugas ie once in every 43 20 000 solar years The purpose of His appearance is protection of Sanatana Dharma and destruction of Atheismyad yad hi dharmasya gl nir bhavati bh rata abhyutth nam adharmasya tad tm na s j my aham Gita 47 Whenever and wherever there is a decline in religious practice O descendant of Bharata and a predominant rise of irreligion at that time I descend Myself But his real purpose is to appear before His devotees and give them pleasure of seeing His beautiful formThe one born before sunrise and later taken to the place of the cows is one without a second He is adorned with bright attractive and transcendental ornaments The Gods and the Seers worship him with unlimited faith and devotion Rig Veda 3551 This verse gives very strong hints about Lord Krishna who took birth before Sunrise in Mathura and then was taken to GokulAt other places in Rig Veda there is description of a beautiful cowherd boy Gopa who never falls from his position and that Gopa cowherd boy is Vishnu himself So Lord Vishnu has been mentioned clearly in the Vedas but Lord Krishna s information is a confidential secret which is kept hidden because it is Krishna s desire that Vedas should not directly reveal the secret about His real identityAn atheist always looks for ways to prove that Krishna doesn t exist or that He is merely a great person who is unnecessarily worshiped due to his achievements Krishna as the Paramatma supreme soul residing in the heart of atheists knows their desire To fulfill their desire He conceals His real identity in the Vedas and only allows some hints and indirect information scattered here and there in the four Principal Vedas Rig Veda Sama Veda Yajur Veda and Atharva VedaActually Krishna is the Author of the Vedas Vedanta Krid and the knower of the Vedas in completeness Veda Vid and He is to be known through the Vedas The goal of Vedic study is the understand Krishna and our relationship with Krishna vedai ca sarvair aham eva vedyo ved ntak d vedavid eva c ham Bhagavad Gita 1515Even in this mortal world the Prime Minister or Head of State keeps his movements and personal information secret This information is only meant for very near and trustworthy persons or family members A general or common person has no access to this information If this is true for a mortal being then just imagine the position of Sri Krishna who is the Head of the Universal Government of Gods who manage this vast universeSo we should not subscribe to the atheistic propaganda that Krishna is not mentioned in the Vedas Vedas are giving us hints about Lord Krishna and we should try to decode those hints with the help of a pure devotee of Lord Krishna A devotee of Krishna can easily understand the real purpose of the Vedas and can guide us expertlyAtheistic propaganda tries to put many obstacles before us and tries to confuse us and bewilder us from the real path of salvation and devotion Such propaganda tries to destroy all the links to Lord Krishna and keep us trapped in illusion Maya If you take guidance from Krishnas devotees all Vedic knowledge and information will be crystal clear and you will start loving Lord Krishna Through such devotion you will be liberated from Maya or illusion
